Unobstructed view Highway officials report that over $7000 worth of trees and shrubs have been destroyed on Michigan highways, apparently to give motorists an un- obstructed view of the billboards decorating the roadsides. Greenery destruction by poisoning or cutting has been reported around at least 30 signs in the Upper and Lower peninsulas. "Our assump- tion is that it is very likely that the ones who did it are either the companies advertised, or the people who own the signs," said Ed Shelberg, coordinator of the state's billboard programs. He also added that there is no way the highway de- partment can take action against the vandals. Beauty is, after all, in the eye of the beholder. Sorry Charlie .. . The next shortage to hit the country could be tuna fish, according to a recent announcement by the Commerce Deptrament. The department plans to impose an embargo on some imported tuna, a move which could cut off most of the tuna sold in the U.S. The embargo is intended to pressure other nations to abide by a 1956 fishing treaty. The move follows complaints by U.S. tuna fishers that this country is the only one which forces its fishing fleet to stick to the internationally set quotas for a five million square mile area of the Pacific Ocean off North and South America. But the Commerce Department declined to say which nations the embargo is directed at. However, the U.S. imports 65 per cent of its tuna from Japan. At this rate Starkist may take Charlie the tuna after all. Dope note Paris custom officers seized 6.6 pounds of heroin hidden in a cake box carried by a Chinese pastry cook yesterday. The cook, named by police as Hong Kong resident Wong Oi Yin, was taken into custody. He was on his way to Amsterdam from Hong Kong via Cairo and Paris, and the heroin found in his possession was estimated to be worth about $700,000. A demise Police in Tacoma, Washington are investigating the disappearance of a house. A wrecking crew appeared on the scene last Thursday and tore down the house. But the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Mattson said they never intended it, only to sell it. But when neighbors told them of the house's demise, they ran over only to discover that they had a plot of land, but their three bedroom, bay- windowed abode no longer existed. Now they are planning to get a lawyer to find out how they can get damage payments-if they find the people who did it. On the inside ., * . .

"One thing you have to remember," the portly Oklahoman told several city audiences Sunday, "is that the experts are always wrong, not some- times, but always. And you can underline the always."~ WHILE HARRIS may not be around when the smoke clears at the Democratic national con- vention next summer, his campaign is a breath of fresh air in an uninspiring field of contenders. Lacking the extensive bankrolling and high- powered national staffs of hopefuls like Senators Lloyd Bentsen and Henry "Scoop" Jackson, Harris has spent his spring and summer traveling the country on a shoestring budget. Harris' Michigan visit was typical of his ap- proach-staying in supporter's homes, shaking a lot of hands, meeting the local party heavies, and most importantly, speaking to the issues. "The fundamental problem is that too few peo- ple have all the money and power," Harris said to a crowd of about 150 in front of the Michigan Union. "Let's have a graduated income tax in- stead of graduated loopholes." - HARRIS enjoyed a good rapport with the pri- marily student audience, deftly fielding their questions in his distinctive-southern drawl. He tore into the Ford admnistration's "high interest-tight money" policies whch he interpreted to mean that "Some of you ought to be out of work so that I can buy a cheaper car." Terrorists seiz( Rebels warn U. S.; captives' fate uncertain By AP and Reuter BEIRUT - The Eritrean Lib- eration Front-Popular Liberation Forces (ELF-PLF) warned the United States yesterday that un- less it responded to its demands, the front would not be respon- sible for what happens to de- tained Americans. Two American technicians and six Ethiopian employes were kidnapped by ELF mem- bers in a raid on a communica- tions station near Asmara on Poice kil hij ackier; hostage is wounded SAN JOSE, Calif. (A) - A frantic gunman seeking to flee aboard a hijacked airliner was shot and killed by a police marksman early yesterday aft- er two hours of violence that left one of his four hostages critically wounded. The would-be hijacker was felled by a single bullet as he emerged, gun in hand, from an empty jetliner with a captive as a shield. Minutes before, police sharpshooters had fired into the cockpit and shot out the tires of the Continental Airlines 727 as it sat on a floodlit runway at San Jose Municipal Airport. THE GUNMAN was identified by police as Fred Salomon, a 24- year-old San Jose man also list- ed on policerecords" as Fred Soloman. Officers said his ar- rest record dated back to 1968, when he was convicted of as- sault with a deadly weapon. Salomon's last brush with the law ended at about 1:30 a.m., after a violent journey during which he fled the scene of a See POLICE, Page 2 Friday. The two technicians two other Americans kidnapped by the ELF from the same sta- tion last July. AMERICAN officials have said they had been unable to es- tablish contacts with the guer- rillas on the basis of which ne- gotiations could take place. A spokesperson for the Beirut- based front said in a press state- ment that the U.S. authorities could get in touch with any of the front's offices to discuss these demands. The spokesperson listed the following conditions: * The U.S. should close down the station and all other bases in Eritrea. * The U.S. should compensate areas "bombed with American weapons" in the fighting last February. * The U.S. should ask the mili- tary rulers in Ethiopia to re- lease Eritrean "freedom-fight- ers" detained in Addis Ababa jails. 9 The U.S. should abstain from giving military aid to the rul- ers in Ethiopia "as these wea- pons are used against our peo- ple in Eritrea." The spokesperson said, "The front's aim behind seizing the two senior military technicians at the base in July was to ques- tion them on the role played by the base to the military rulers in Ethiopia against the revolu- tion of its people. "THEY WERE also interro- gated on the hostile role played by the base against the Arab region," he added. He also said that investiga- tions revealed "important and serious information on the role played by this base not only against the revolution of our people, but also against the Arab people and the African libera- tion movements." This led the PLF command to send a letter to the U.S. govern- ment containing the conditions for the release of the detainees, the spokesman said.

Taxing the banks, } lowering'the interest rates and stringently en- forcing federal anti-trust laws, are all part of his program to cure the national ills. Harris hopes to build a broad based following around these issues that will cut into George Wallace's white working class constituency while retaining the left wing of his party. For Harris, the issues are the strategy. "WHAT I SAY cuts across race, age, and sex lines," claimed Harris. "We have to commit this country to full em- ployment," he told. reporters shortly before the rally. Harris wants to create two million public service jobs during the first 18 months of his presidency.

"THAT'S the Nixon - that's the lesson of Watergate and evidently you haven't learned it yet, Mr. Wyman," Durkin said. "Mr. Durkin, that's exactly the sort of thing that you've done in the campaign, but that sort of thing is reflecting on your own situa- tion," Wyman replied.
